Dear Mr. Rodgers and Mr. McDonnell: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSl) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during mitigative grading within Phase 12, Lots 84 through 88 of Planning Area 17, at Robertson Ranch, East Village Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of remedial grading was to reprocess the subject lots in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference Nos. 1 and 2. For the subject, low expansive Lots 84 through 88 (Phase 12), earthwork minimally consisted of processing the upper 12 inches of existing fill soil across, compacting and moisture conditioning to at least 90 percent at, or above the soils optimum moisture content. Where tested, reprocessed and/or fill material was compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction, at the recommended moisture contents per ASTM D 1557, in accordance with OSI recommendations (see Reference No. 1). Based on our observations and testing, the building pads appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the recommendations provided by this office (see Reference Nos. 1, 2, and 3), and are considered suitable for development from a geotechnical standpoint. Field Observation and Testing Field density tests were performed using nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this construction phase were determined in general accordance with test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: SOIL TYPE MAXIMUM DENSITY (PCF) MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) B - Dark Brown, Clayey SAND [ 114.0 13.0 C - Gray Brown, Clayey SAND 120.5 13.5 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and recent tests also indicate over optimum soil moisture content, in general accordance with GSI's reports (Reference Nos. 1 and 3). Should a significant (i.e., three to seven days) period of time pass prior to slab construction, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subarade proof testing may be necessary, prior to placement of the underslab vapor retarder (see Reference Nos. 1, and 3). Foundation Design/Construction Unless specifically superceded herein, the findings, conclusions, and recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, are generally considered valid and applicable with respect to the construction and development of the subject building pads. Based on our review of Reference No. 3, Lot Nos. 87 and 88 are categorized as foundation Category IPT, based on low expansive soil conditions (Reference No. 3). Lots 84, 85, and 86 are categorized as foundation Category lIPT, based on the as-built fill thickness across each lot (Reference No. 3). If building code updates are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary.

Page 2 pop outs, and potentially some isolated exterior footings maybe impacted by the proximity to planned side yard drainage swales and side yard subdrain trenches. In order to mitigate the potential for settlement, these footings may need to be deepened. In cross section, deepened footings should extend to a bearing depth of at least 6 inches below the bottom of the adjacent swale flow line elevation or deepened below a 1:1 project extending up and away from the bottom outside edge of the subdrain trench, whichever is deeper. Additional footing depths ranging from 6 to 12 inches (total footing embedment of 18 to 30 inches) should be anticipated locally. Closure The materials encountered on the project site and utilized for our analysis are believed representative of the area; however, soil and bedrock materials vary in character between excavations and natural outcrops or conditions exposed during mass grading. Site conditions may vary due to seasonal changes or other factors. Inasmuch as our study is based upon our review and engineering analyses and laboratory data, the conclusions and recommendations are professional opinions. These opinions have been derived in accordance with current standards of practice, and no warranty, either express or implied, is given. Standards of practice are subject to change with time. GSI assumes no responsibility or liability for work or testing performed by others, or their inaction; or work performed when GSl is not requested to be onsite, to evaluate if our recommendations have been properly implemented. Use of this report constitutes an agreement and consent by the user to all the limitations outlined above, notwithstanding any other agreements that may be in place. In addition, this report may be subject to review by the controlling authorities. Thus, this report brings to completion our scope of services for this portion of the project.

Dear Mr. Rodgers and Mr. McDonnell: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSI) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during mitigative grading within Phase 6 Lots 13 through 19 of Planning Area 17, at Robertson Ranch, East Village Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of remedial grading was to reprocess the subject lots in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference Nos. 1 and 2. For the subject highly expansive lots, earthwork consisted of removing the upper 12 inches of existing fill soil across the lots. Once removals were completed, the exposed bottoms were processed, moisture conditioned and compacted to a depth of 12 additional inches, then brought to grade with compacted fill, such that the upper 24 inches has been reprocessed. Where tested, reprocessed and/or fill material was compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction, at 4 percent to 5 percent above the soils optimum moisture content per ASTM D 1557 (see Reference No. 1) per GSl recommendations. Based on our observations and testing, the building pads appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the recommendations provided by this office (see Reference Nos. 1, 2, and 3), and are considered suitable for development from a geotechnical standpoint. Field Observation and Testing Field density tests were performed using nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The this laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within construction phase were determined in general accordance with test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: TYPE TSOIL DENSITY (PCF) MAXIMUM MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) 1 13 - Dark Brown, clayey SAND F 114.0 I 13.0 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and recent tests indicate over optimum soil moisture content, per GSI's reports (Reference Nos. 1 and 3). Should a significant (i.e., three to seven days) period of time pass prior to slab construction, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subg rade proof testing may be necessary, prior to placement of the undersiab vapor retarder (see Reference Nos. 1, and 3). Foundation Design/Construction Unless specifically superceded herein, the findings, conclusions, and recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, are generally considered valid and applicable with respect to the construction and development of the subject building pads. Based on our review of Reference No. 3, the subject lots are categorized as foundation Category IlIPT, based on highly expansive soil conditions. If building code updates are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary. Based on a review of the precise grading plans (Reference No. 4), foundations for fireplace pop outs, and potentially some isolated exterior footings may be impacted bythe proximity to planned side yard drainage swales and side yard subdrain trenches. In order to mitigate the potential for settlement, these footings may need to be deepened. In cross section, deepened footings should extend to a bearing depth of at least 6 inches below the bottom Brookfield Homes W.O. 5949-B17-SC PA-17, Phase 6, Robertson Ranch February 18, 2013 File: e:\wpl2\5900\5949b17.ph6.cro GeOSoils, Inc.

Dear Ms. Molina and Mr. Jaeger: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSl) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during mitigative grading within a portion of Phase 11 (Lots 223, 224, and 225), Planning Area 18 (Sycamore at the Foothills), at the Robertson Ranch Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of remedial grading was to reprocess lots that have remained fallow since the Completion of mass grading (see Reference Nos. 2 and 3). Earthwork generally Consisted of re-processing surficial soils, moisture conditioning, and placement/compaction of soil to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D 1557, as recommended in Reference No. 2). Based on our observations and testing, the building pads appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the minimum recommendations provided by this office (see Reference No. 2), and are considered suitable for their continued development. Should these pads remain undeveloped for a significant period of time after this phase of grading, additional future mitigative earthwork will likely be recommended, as presented in Reference No. 2. Field Observation and Testing Lots 223, 224, and 225 are low expansive (see Reference No. 3). However, the grading contractor elected to reprocess these lots in accordance with recommendations for medium expansive soil conditions. As such, the upper 12 inches of soil was also removed and recompacted in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, for medium expansive soil conditions. Prior to filling, the exposed bottom was ripped approximately 12 inches, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content, and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Once the bottom was processed, the pads were then restored to planned pad grade with compacted fill, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content, and a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Thus, the upper 2 feet of the pads on Lots 223, 224, and 225 were reprocessed during this recent grading effort. Field density tests were performed using nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938-10 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this reprocessing phase were determined according to test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: SOIL TYPE MAXIMUM DENSITY (PCF) MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) I - Yellow Gray Silty Sand I 127.0 I 11.0 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and recent tests completed for the removal bottom indicate at least optimum, or over optimum soil moisture, per the GSI reports (see Reference No. 1 and 2). As previously recommended, should a significant period of time elapse prior to slab construction where the slab subgrade has the potential to dry out, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subgrade proof testing will be necessary prior to placement of the underslab vapor retarder (see Reference No. 1 and No.2).

Dear Mr. McDonnell: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSl) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during additional grading within a portion of Planning Area 18 (Lots 195 through 206), at the Robertson Ranch Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of grading was to configure this previously sheet graded area to design grades per plan. Earthwork generally consisted of re-processing surficial soils, moisture conditioning, and placement/compaction of soil to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D 1557, as recommended in Reference Nos. 2 and 4, including processing of rear yard slope areas above some of the subject lots, as discussed in Reference No. 1. Based on our observations and testing, the building pads and slope appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the recommendations provided by this office (see Reference Nos. 1, 2, and 4), and are considered suitable for their continued development. Should these pads remain undevelopedfor a significant period of time after this phase of grading, additional future mitigative earthwork will likely be recommended, as presented in Reference No. 4. Field Observation and Testin For pre-existing very low to low expansive fill Lots 195, 197, 201, 202, 205, and 206, the upper 8-12 inches from pad grade was scarified, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D-1 557. For medium expansive fill Lot 200, the upper 12 inches of soil was removed and recompacted in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference No. 4, for medium expansive soil conditions. Prior to filling, the exposed bottom was ripped approximately 12 inches, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Once the bottom was processed, the pad was then restored to planned pad grade with compacted fill, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Thus, the upper 2 feet of the pad on Lot 200 was reprocessed during this recent grading effort. For pre-existing cut lots 196, 198, 199, 203, and 204, these lots were undercut at least 3 feet below pad grade, with the undercut sloped to drain (not less than ½ percent) toward the street area. Once undercuts were completed, the exposed bottoms were scarified, moisture conditioned, and compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D-1557, then brought to grade with compacted fill prepared/placed in similar fashion. Soil moisture contents were at least optimum moisture content, with the exception of Lot 199, which was moisture conditioned to at least 2-3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content within 24 inches of pad grade, per Reference No. 4. Field density 'fests were performed using the nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938-10 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this phase of grading was determined according to test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: SOIL TYPE MAXIMUM DENSITY (PC F) MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) A -Brown Silty SAND 127.0 10.0 C - Gray Brown Clayey SAND 120.5 13.0 F - Gray Brown Gravelly SAND 134.0 8.0 E - Dark Brown Silty SAND 126.0 11.0 A -Brown Silty SAND 127.0 10.0 SOIL TYPE MAXIMUM DENS.ITI:., (PG.F) MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) I 202 - Light Yellow Gray Clayey SAND I 125.5 I 10.5 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and at soil moistures per GSI reports (see Reference No. 2 and 4). As previously recommended, should a significant period of time elapse prior to slab construction where the slab subgrade has the potential to dry out, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subgrade proof testing will be necessary prior to placement of the underslab vapor retarder (see Reference No. 4).

If building code updates pass, or are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary. Based on our review of Reference No. 5, and subsequent expansion testing of selected lots per ASTM D-4829 during grading, Lots 195 through 199, and Lots 201 through 206 are very low to low expansive, with a recommended foundation type of I PT. Lots 199 and 200 are medium expansive, as determined per ASTM D-4829, and are Category II PT.

Dear Ms. Molina and Mr. Jaeger: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSl) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during mitigative grading within a portion of Phase 10 (Lots 220, 221, and 222), Planning Area 18 (Sycamore at the Foothills), at the Robertson Ranch Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of remedial grading was to reprocess lots that have remained fallow since the completion of mass grading (see Reference Nos. 2 and 3). Earthwork generally consisted of re-processing surficial soils, moisture conditioning, and placement/compaction of soil to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D 1557, as recommended in Reference No. 2). Based on our observations and testing, the building pads appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the minimum recommendations provided by this office (see Reference No. 2), and are considered suitable for their continued development. Should these pads remain undeveloped for a significant period of time after this phase of grading, additional future mitigative earthwork will likely be recommended, as presented in Reference No. 2. Field Observation and Testing For Lot 220, the upper 12 inches of soil was removed and recompacted in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, for medium expansive soil conditions. Prior to filling, the exposed bottom was ripped approximately 12 inches, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Once the bottom was processed, the pad was then restored to planned pad grade with compacted fill, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Thus, the upper 2 feet of the pad on Lot 220 was reprocessed during this recent grading effort. Lots 221 and 222 are low expansive (see Reference No. 3). However, the grading contractor elected to reprocess these lots in accordance with recommendations for medium expansive soil conditions. As such, the upper 12 inches of soil was also removed and recompacted in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, for medium expansive soil conditions. Prior to filling, the exposed bottom was ripped approximately 12 inches, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content, and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Once the bottom was processed, the pads were then restored to planned pad grade with compacted fill, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content, and a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Thus, the upper 2 feet of the pads on Lots 221 and 222 were reprocessed during this recent grading effort. Field density tests were performed using nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938-10 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this reprocessing phase were determined according to test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appearto meet the minimum compaction D.R. Horton W.O.6302-B-SC Phase 10 (Sycamore at the Foothills) March 26, 2013 FiIe:e:\wp12\63OO63O2b.cro.ph1O Page 2 requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and recent tests completed for the removal bottom indicate at least optimum, or over optimum soil moisture, per the GSI reports (see Reference No. 1 and 2). As previously recommended, should a significant period of time elapse prior to slab construction where the slab subgrade has the potential to dry out, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subgrade proof testing will be necessary prior to placement of the underslab vapor retarder (see Reference No. 1 and No. 2). Foundation Design/Construction Unless specifically superceded herein, the findings, conclusions, and recommendations presented in Reference No. 1, and Reference No. 3, are generally considered valid and applicable with respect to the construction and development of the subject building pads. If building code updates pass, or are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary. Based on our review of Reference No. 3, Lot 220 is Category II, and Lots 221 and 222 are Category I.

Dear Mr. McDonnell: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSI) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during additional grading within a portion of Planning Area 18 (Lots 195 through 206), at the Robertson Ranch Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of grading was to configure this previously sheet graded area to design grades per plan. Earthwork generally consisted of re-processing surficial soils, moisture conditioning, and placement/compaction of soil to a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D 1557, as recommended in Reference Nos. 2 and 4, including processing of rear yard slope areas above some of the subject lots, as discussed in Reference No. 1. Based on our observations and testing, ,the building pads and slope appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the recommendations provided by this office (see Reference Nos. 1, 2, and 4), and are considered suitable for their, continued development. Should these pads remain undeveloped for a significant period of time after this phase of grading, additional future mitigative earthwork will likely be recommended, as presented in Reference No. 4. Field Observation and Testing For pre-existing very low to low expansive fill Lots 195, 197, 201, 202, 205, and 206, the upper 8-12 inches from pad grade was scarified, moisture conditioned to at least optimum moisture content and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent per ASTM D-1 557. For medium expansive fill Lot 200, the upper 12 inches of soil was removed and recompacted in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference No. 4, for medium expansive soil conditions. Prior to filling, the exposed bottom was ripped approximately 12 inches, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and reprocessed to achieve a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Once the bottom was processed, the pad was then restored to planned pad grade with compacted fill, moisture conditioned to at least 2 to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content, and a minimum relative compaction of 90 percent (per ASTM D 1557). Thus, the upper 2 feet of the pad on Lot 200 was reprocessed during this recent grading effort. For pre-existing cut lots 196, 198, 199, 203, and 204, these lots were undercut at least 3 feet below pad grade, with the undercut sloped to drain (not less than ½ percent) toward the street area. Once undercuts were completed, the exposed bottoms were scarified, moisture conditioned, and compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D-1 557, then brought to grade with compacted fill prepared/placed in similar fashion. Soil moisture contents were at least optimum moisture content, with the exception of Lot 199, which was moisture conditioned to at least 2-3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content within 24 inches of pad grade, per Reference No. 4. Field density tests were performed using the nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938-10 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this phase of grading was determined according to test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: MAXIMUM MOISTURE CONTENT SOIL TYPE DENSITY (PCF) (PERCENT) A -Brown Silty SAND 127.0 10.0 C - Gray Brown Clayey SAND 120.5 13.0 F - Gray Brown Gravelly SAND 134.0 8.0 E - Dark Brown Silty SAND 126.0 11.0 A - Brown Silty SAND 127.0 10.0 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and at soil moistures per GSI reports (see Reference No. 2 and 4). As previously recommended, should a significant period of time elapse prior to slab construction where the slab subgrade has the potential to dry out, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subgrade proof testing will be necessary priorto placement of the underslab vapor retarder (see Reference No. 4). Foundation Design/Construction Unless specifically superceded herein, the findings, conclusions, and recommendations presented in Reference No. 3, and Reference No. 5, are generally considered valid and applicable with respect to the construction and development of the subject building pads. If building code updates pass, or are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary. Based on our review of Reference No. 5, and subsequent expansion testing of selected lots per ASTM D-4829 during grading, Lots 195 through 199, and Lots 201 through 206 are very tow to low expansive, with a recommended foundation type of I PT. Lots 199 and 200 are medium expansive, as determined per ASTM D-4829, and are Category II PT. Closure The materials encountered on the project site and utilized for our analysis are believed representative of the area; however, soil and bedrock materials vary in character between excavations and natural outcrops or conditions exposed during mass grading. Site conditions may vary due to seasonal changes or other factors. Inasmuch as our study is based upon our review and engineering analyses and laboratory data, the conclusions and recommendations are professional opinions. These opinions have been derived in accordance with current standards of practice, and no warranty, either express or implied, is given. Standards of practice are subject to change with time. GSI assumes no responsibility or liability for work or testing performed by others, or their inaction; or work performed when GSI is not requested to be onsite, to evaluate if our recommendations have been properly implemented. Use of this report constitutes an agreement and consent by the user to all the limitations outlined above, notwithstanding any other agreements that may be in place. In addition, this report may be subject to review by the controlling authorities. Thus, this report brings to completion our scope of services for this portion of the project.

Dear Mr. Rodgers and Mr. McDonnell: GeoSoils, Inc. (GSI) is providing this summary of our observation and testing services during mitigative grading within Phase 13, Lots 20 through 25 of Planning Area 17, at Robertson Ranch, East Village Subdivision in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of remedial grading was to reprocess the subject lots in accordance with recommendations presented in Reference Nos. 1 and 2. For the subject, medium expansive (Expansion Index [El] 51-90) lots, earthwork consisted of removing the upper 12 inches of existing fill soil across the lots. Once removals were completed, the exposed bottoms were processed, moisture conditioned and compacted to a depth of 12 additional inches, then brought to grade with compacted fill, such that the upper 24 inches has been reprocessed. Where tested, reprocessed and/or fill material was compacted to at least 90 percent relative compaction, at 2 percent to 3 percent above the soils optimum moisture content per ASTM D 1557 (see Reference Nos. 1 and 2). Based on our observations and testing, the building pads appear to have been prepared in general accordance with the recommendations provided by this office (see Reference Nos. 1, 2, and 3), and are considered suitable for development from a geotechnical standpoint. Field Observation and Testing Field density tests were performed using nuclear (densometer) ASTM test method D 6938 (Procedure A). The test results taken during grading operations are presented in the attached copies of our "Field Testing Reports." The laboratory maximum dry density and optimum moisture content for the major soil type within this construction phase were determined in general accordance with test method ASTM D 1557. The following table presents the results: SOIL TYPE MAXIMUM DENSFY(PCF) ' MOISTURE CONTENT (PERCENT) B - Dark Brown, Clayey SAND 114.0 13.0 C - Gray Brown, Clayey SAND 120.5 13.5 Field compaction testing indicates that the soils appear to meet the minimum compaction requirements previously established and adopted by the City of Carlsbad (i.e., at least 90 percent relative compaction per ASTM D 1557), and recent tests also indicate over optimum soil moisture content, in general accordance with GSl's reports (Reference Nos. 1 and 3). Should a significant (i.e., three to seven days) period of time pass prior to slab construction, additional moisture conditioning and/or re-establishing consistency, as well as pad subgrade proof testing may be necessary, prior to placement of the undersiab vapor retarder (see Reference Nos. 1, and 3). Foundation Design/Construction Unless specifically superceded herein, the findings, conclusions, and recommendations presented in Reference No. 2, are generally considered valid and applicable with respect to the construction and development of the subject building pads. Based on our review of Reference No. 3, Lot Nos. 20 through 25 are categorized as foundation Category IIPT, based on medium expansive soil conditions (Reference No. 3). If building code updates are adopted prior to the development of these pads, an additional geotechnical update report may be necessary. Based on a review of the precise grading plans (Reference No. 4), foundations for fireplace pop outs, and potentially some isolated exterior footings may be impacted by the proximity Brookfield Homes W. 0. 5949-B17-SC PA-17 Phase 13, Robertson Ranch September 18 2014 FiIe:e:\wpl2\5900\5949b17.phl3.cro Geoftib,lnc.Page 2 to planned side yard drainage swales and side yard subd rain trenches. In order to mitigate the potential for settlement, these footings may need to be deepened. In cross section, deepened footings should extend to a bearing depth of at least 6 inches below the bottom of the adjacent swale flow line elevation or deepened below a 1:1 project extending up and away from the bottom outside edge of the subdrain trench, whichever is deeper. Additional footing depths ranging from 6 to 12 inches (total footing embedment of 18 to 30 inches) should be anticipated locally.

Site conditions may vary due to seasonal changes or other factors.
